Meet Tim Grigg, the man behind Travelwild Australia.

A tour company offering 4WD experiences across the wilds of the Kimberley, South Australia’s Outback and Flinders Ranges to the more pleasurable slower paced walking tours through rolling hills and vineyards in the Clare Valley.

Originally from Mildura, Tim moved to South Australia to pursue a career in industrial design, a career that wasn't for him as he always had an yearning to be in the bush. So he approached a company who ran tours to  Alice Springs and from that moment he was hooked.

In this episode, Tim takes you through the highs and lows of starting a tour company, from not making any money with his first tours to Kangaroo Island, constantly fixing up trucks in the Kimberley, to navigating the GFC and COVID and pivoting the company out of challenging financial situations.

This is not just a business story, it’s a love story too.

Tim met his now wife Bianca, a young backpacker from Holland in his first six months as a tour guide and they’ve been touring together ever since.

Enjoy this fascinating behind the scenes journey of the unglamorous world of tourism with Tim Grigg.
